#tbf he didn't say anything else and just went on with his business and left before us

[brokenfoxproductions]

So I met my partner's family and ended up fucking around Philly for a few days for his dad's funeral.

I literally wore my best chest binder until I started having palpitations (I don't usually bind daily or for long periods because of my heart issues but I couldn't get my hair right and an ill fitting shirt made everything dysphoria hell). I didn't bother correcting anyone on my pronouns because (a) some of them are Catholic (b) the last thing I wanted to do was take away from their grieving process with the realization that their loved one's oldest child and only son is dating a gender non confirming, non-binary trans man (especially because his mother reacted horribly to discovering that I was trans by getting drunk and attempting to out me to people last year).

Also bonus points, I took my 5 year old into the men's room to go pee at a restaurant after the funeral (there was a gender neutral single stall bathroom, but people were in there vaping and wouldn't let us use it 🙄), and when I was in the stall talking to him, a dude walked in, heard me, and asked "did I accidentally go into the ladies room?"

*sigh* "Nah, man. Pretty sure there's no urinals in there."
